Growth in the aviation city of Wichita
Built up during the aircraft industry boom of World War II, Wichita's Power neighborhood is known not only for its industrial areas and aircraft history but also for its memorial park and considerably affordable brick-faced family homes. The neighborhood's convenient location on the northern side of the city gives it access to all city amenities and proximity to the parks, jobs and restaurants while still allowing for low housing prices. With a location near the McConnel Air Force Base, the area is well known for its history in aviation research and has access to three airports. "The area started with the Aviation industry boom in World War II, and it's both grown and stayed the same ever since," says Jack Silvers, a realtor and resident of Wichita of 44 years.
Piatt Memorial Park is just one of many nearby parks to enjoy in Power.
